Virginie Loveling

Virginie Loveling was born in Nevele, in East Flanders, on 17 May 1836.

She wrote first with her sister Rosalie, then alone: novels of the Flemish countryside and anticlerical writings, sometimes under a man's pseudonym. She tackled controversial subjects and wrote a novel with her nephew Cyriel Buysse. She died in Ghent on 1 December 1923.
